Note

Goodwill and
Long-Lived
Assets
 
During the
three
months ended
March 31, 2019,
the largest customer of our Cold Chain Packaging reporting segment provided
90
-day notice that they are terminating their purchase contract with us. As a result, we performed an impairment analysis on the segment, which accounts for the expected loss of the customer. We determined that the long-lived assets and goodwill associated with our Cold Chain Packaging reporting segment were impaired and we recognized a non-cash impairment charge of
$47
on goodwill,
$737
on long-lived intangible assets, and
$229
on property plant and equipment, which is recorded in impairment loss on goodwill and long-lived assets on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
 
During the
three
months ended
December 31, 2018,
we performed an impairment analysis on our Cold Chain Packaging reporting segment as the segment’s financial results continued to fall short of expectations. Specifically, rising commodity costs used in the segment’s principal product have increased over the past year, eroding the gross profit margin of the segment. We determined that the long-lived assets and goodwill associated with our Cold Chain Packaging reporting segment were impaired and we recognized non-cash impairment charge of
$1,028
on goodwill and
$2,641
on long-lived assets, in impairment loss on goodwill and long-lived assets on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
 
During the year ended
March 31, 2018,
revenues in our Cold Chain Packaging reporting segment decreased significantly as compared to the prior year primarily due to a significant decrease in revenues from our largest customer. As a result of this and other related events, we reviewed the long-lived assets associated with this reporting segment and recorded a
$13,819
impairment charge during the year ended
March 31, 2018.
 
After the charges recorded, the remaining value of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment associated with the Cold Chain Packaging reporting segment are
$54
and
$17,
respectively as of
March 31, 2019.
The fair value of the impaired assets was determined using Level
3
inputs (unobservable inputs) based on a discounted cash flow method.   
 
Within the next
12
months, we intend to exit the Cold Chain Packaging business. We intend to cease accepting new customers, and to gradually curtail sales and expenses related to existing customers. The Cold Chain Packaging division had sales of
$6,907
during the year ended
March 31, 2019.
We are targeting to exit by or before
March 31, 2020.
